Quand on m’a suggéré de passer un week-end en amoureux pour découvrir la région de Chaudière-Appalaches et cela avec mon chien Benji, j’ai tout de suite dit un gros OUI ! Premièrement, parce que c’était mon premier week-end en amoureux depuis que nous avions agrandi la famille en accueillant notre petit garçon en juillet 2021, mais aussi parce qu’un peu de repos ne fait jamais de tort à de nouveaux parents. En plus, notre vrai premier fils, Benji, notre caniche royal débordant d’énergie, ne dit jamais non à un week-end plein air dans Chaudière-Appalaches.

Adeptes de randonnée en toutes saisons, l’hiver on chausse nos raquettes pour profiter pleinement de la multitude de sentiers qu’offre le Parc des Appalaches. C’est en effet pour nous LA place de rêve pour pratiquer au milieu d'un espace naturel à l’état brut.
